So signing artwork is a bad thing? just curious.
also, I look forward to the next one as I've never had much training when it came to drawing... this thread will actually be helpful.
Exactly! If you're sitting there hacking away at erasing a big field of scribble-shaded pencil lines because you made a construction mistake early on, you did something wrong. I don't understand how it takes doing this more than once never to try it again.
Bad form, Peter.
Does he also write "Age 26" under his name and the date?

Well, it shouldn't take away from the main composition ever.
Just to pull rules out of my ass:
1) don't sign the damn thing until it's completely done
2) tuck it away in a corner or edge or something, functionally it should identify you as the artist if I'm looking for your name, it shouldn't jump out and say HAY LOOK THIS IS MY NAME I DID THIS BAM I HAVE PRACTICED MY SIGNATURE SO HARD TOO, keep it simple and out of the way and
3) don't sign the damn thing until it's completely done.
Look at JM's work in the other thread, he has the right idea.
What do you guys think?
*all bets are off if you are Famous and your signature is worth Money.

alright... so keep it tiny and out of the way or non-existent. Understood.
Guess I just got all excited and wanted to sign the damn thing.
Yellerdog, you're mean.
Donk
Don't you talk to Professor Dog that way, he's just trying to make us better.
I sign the paintings I have done, but I do it on the edge of the canvas so you can't see it on the painting because I'm not some pretentious asshole who thinks he's more important than he is.
